I visited this facility

Brookdale Grants Pass Cottages was really nice, but Dad didn’t like the area so much. It was open, friendly, and clean. There was a lot of respect for the people living there. There was a man that had fallen when we were leaving, and everybody was running out to help him -- all the grounds crew and the staff inside the building. Then an ambulance was called, and there was a lot of attention given to him. I knew that if my dad fell, somebody would help him. The location was close to the hospital, and they had a bus that goes there. It had bus trips going to places, too.

I have visited here with my husband twice, once when it was Emeritus and once as Brookdale. The difference was night and day. We had put a deposit down when it was Emeritus, but we had not sold our home yet. Then it changed to Brookdale, so we went back to see what the changes were. We were shocked. The quality and presentation of the food was terrible. The help was half what it had been before. We asked for our deposit back. It took several months, multiple phone calls and 3 visits to get it back. This is not a place I would recommend.

I liked Brookdale Grants Pass Village (formerly Emeritus at The Springs Senior Living Campus) very much. They had a continual set of activities going all the time. There were a lot of people there. They had a dynamic situation at dinner all the time, and there's always somebody to eat with. They had five or six different rooms for every choice. They had big rooms, expanded rooms, and little houses -- which I wasn't interested in because I want to be where the action is -- but they were nice too. You can even get a garage if you wanted one, but the roads getting to it were not very fancy.

My parents moved into Brookdale Grants Pass Village. It's a 3-level care community. So far it has been very relatively positive and easy process for them. They are in a 2-bedroom cottage. My stepdad likes the environment and the way it feels. The facility was very clean and they are offered three meals a day. In case their needs change, they can just be attended right there.

Brookdale Grants Pass Cottages (Formerly Emeritus at The Springs Senior Living) was a larger facility with a wider variety of offerings from cottages for very independent living to assisted living and memory care. It seemed like a very modern and well-appointed place, but the scale of it was large, like a big hotel. It does have common areas and a big dining room that's like a restaurant. I've walked in there without an appointment and looked around, and they contacted me several times afterwards. I spoke to three people in quick succession just inside the door, and they invited me to make an appointment and to have lunch.

Emeritus at Spring Cottages was very nice. It was not a very old facility, and they had a nice outdoor patio. They put people with dogs on the first floor, so that it was easier to get out. They have other levels of care as they are needed, and they have everything from cottages to single room units. All of the facilities, whether it was a cottage or not, had the availability of three meals a day, some housekeeping assistance, and then if you needed more care, they can move you up in a level to where that is available to. It was a very large campus, it was a good sized facility, you have a lot of people close by, and the feeling was that it was quite secure. My only hesitancy about moving there is the cost, and that is my biggest problem at this time. They had a number of activities available, and all I can recall now is that I was perfectly impressed with that.
